## Text

15-442. Record of school district boundaries; limitation on change; notice to governing board

A. The county school superintendent, on or before December 1 each year, shall file with the board of supervisors and the county assessor a transcript of the boundaries of each school district within the county. The boundaries shown in the transcript shall become the legal boundaries of the districts as of the following July 1.

B. The boundaries of a school district shall not be changed except as provided in this title and then only after the governing boards of the districts affected have had written notice of the proposed change from the county school superintendent and have had an opportunity to be heard.

C. If the county school superintendent and county assessor determine that the boundaries of any school district are in conflict with one another or with other intersecting legal boundaries, traverse within a legally described boundary or are incorrectly described, the county school superintendent shall change, reconcile and describe the school district boundaries accurately and shall make a report of those boundary adjustments to the board of supervisors.  When the board of supervisors approves a district boundary report that is submitted by the county school superintendent, those boundaries shall be the legal boundaries and descriptions of the school district within that county.
